طَلّ, or like this last: or still, continuous rain, consisting of small drops, resembling dust: or such as is after [app. meaning more than] what is termed
طَلّ: n. un. رَذَاذَةٌ. To such rain, the poet Bakhdaj, using the abbreviated form of the word, likens some of his verses; not as meaning weak, but as meaning continuous, or uninterrupted, and unruffled; while he likens others of his verses to rain such as is termed وَابِل. One says, يَوْمُنَا يَوْمُ رَذَاذٍ وَسُرُورٍ وَٱلْتِذَاذٍ [Our day is a day of fine rain, &c., and of happiness, and of delectation].
